I received such a beautiful surprise present from @sharonlt55 -- this adorable ornament. Look at the cute little bells on the hanger! Sharon is my partner in all things Prairie Schooler obsessive and receiving this beauty had made me digging out my orna

It's taken me much longer than I'd anticipated, but I've enjoyed each stitch. I have just about 1/8th of the quilting left to go and then I can give this quilt to its new owner. #figtreequilts #handquilting #denyseschmidt #quilting

Because I had planned on finishing up my Steam Punk blocks this week, I pulled out my #bonnieandcamille fabrics instead to see if I remember how to paper piece. I'm anxious to start the Forest Abstractions quilt and I get so easily distracted. The patte

Me: "Guess what?! I finished the 32nd & 33rd block out of 40 something blocks for #steampunkquilt, so I'm nearly done!". DH: "You're only 1/3 of the way there, then. You still have to baste, quilt, and bind.". Me: 🙉😬. #jenkin

3 pm in the afternoon, Ireland's National Famine Memorial with Croagh Patrick in the background, and the sun peeking out between rainstorms. The ship is built from abstract skeletons. #wildatlanticway #ireland #countymayo

My need-to-be-pressed-better blocks number 29, 30, and 31 for my #steampunkquilt. #quilting #jenkingwell #jenkingwelldesigns

My on the go project... I need to find more excuses to 'go' so I can work on it! Totally inspired by @sohappytosew's masterpiece. #orangepeelqal2014 #orangepeelquilt #annamariahorner

I'm using this 1/4 inch tape to mark my quilting lines for the first time. I'm finding it more fiddly than I'd like. Hand quilters, do you use this? #denyseschmidt #figtreequilts
SiobhanC:
I'm halfway through my #steampunkquilt blocks. Woohoo! #jenkingwell #jenkingwelldesigns #amitietextiles

Steam Punking again. These fabrics remind me of when I was a nerdy kid, reading ads like these, wondering about getting a decoder ring. . #steampunkquilt #quilting #patchwork #sew

Sometimes I think being referred to as "the baby" might have gone to Duffy's head. #cavalierkingcharlesspaniel #ckcs

For the first time in months everyone is at work or school and I have the day off. My sewing table is a happy mix of orange peels, steam punk wedges, #annamariahorner, #denyseschmidt, and #loriholt. Life is good. #steampunkquilt
SiobhanC:
Thanks so much @quiltjane for the #aurifil sampler pack win from the #nestedchurndash QAL. I love the colour and can't wait to try out the thread weights that I haven't used yet. ❤️ Aurifil! #quilting

When I was in middle school I read a book that centred around O'Brien's Tower, seen in the distance in this photo. A few (cough ) decades later & I live close enough that this view is no longer a novelty to me. It does always amaze and humble me. #coun

Tagged by @threadgatherer for #widn ... Counting up my left over blocks from my first #figtreequilts Stems quilt so I can make another one and quilt it ASAP to give as a Christmas gift. Tagging @chambsvacc and @elnorac if you want to play. #denyseschmid

Because everyone hauls a finished quilt top out to public gardens for a photo shoot.... My #fancyfoxquilt, pattern by @elizabethagh, using Moda's American Jane fabrics and moda shot cotton. #americanjane #showmethemoda #moda #quilt

August in Ireland is pretty much perfect. The farmlands in the valley become a turlough (lake) during the wet winters. #theburren #countyclare #ireland

I'm so glad the weather is cool enough for hand quilting. I'm nearly finished outline quilting the #appliqué and ready to begin the background grid. #sarahfielke #quiltingfromlittlethings #whirligig #quilt

I haven't felt like stitching in so long that it felt like finding an old friend when I pulled out the DMC for the #50statesstitching club. #wildolive #embroidery

I am making the #fancyfoxquilt for my daughter for Christmas. I broke into my #americanjane fabric for the faces, and am using Moda weave for the background. #showmethemoda
